Poinsettia Card

I think Christmas cards are my favorite to make! Do you have a favorite holiday or occasion to create for?


Hey there! I'm here today with an elegant poinsettia card project created for CutCutStock.



Materials

Card Stock – Cougar White Smooth CardStockClassic Linen White Pearl Card Stock,  DCS Gold GLITTER Heavyweight 12×12 Discount Card StockLessebo DAWN MAROON 83lb CardstockLessebo HUNTER GREEN 83lb CardstockPop Tone GUM DROP GREEN Discount Card Stock

Poinsettia, Foliage, Frame and Sentiment Dies

Glitter Glue, Pearls

Adhesive


Card Base

My card base was made from the cougar white card stock to measure 5 x 6 1/2 inches with a top fold.

Cut a piece of glitter card 5 x 6 1/2 inches to cover the base. A piece of red card was cut to 4 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches to mat a piece of 4 5/8 x 6 1/8 inch piece of the linen pearl.

Die Cutting

The die cut pieces were cut. They consist of a frame, foliage, a sentiment and enough pieces to construct 3 layered poinsettias.



I assembled the poinsettias. Gold glitter glue was added to the flower centers and pearls were to some of the foliage.


Complete

To complete my design, I started adding the die cut pieces. The frame was added first and the sentiment adhered to the center. Placement of the poinsettias was decided.

Foliage was added last.

I ended up with a little of the gold glitter glue on the flowers, but don’t mind at all!



Thanks for stopping by and having a look at my Poinsettia Card project!
